This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Cordial, helpful attorney

I am out of state and randomly picked Attorney Drexler's firm to get some information. I initially spoke with the firm's administrator, then Attorney Drexler. Both were generous with their time and provided detailed, helpful information. I strongly recommend this firm for family law related matte...rs.

Excellent and Knowledgeable service

Matt Drexler assisted me in winning back fully joint custody of my children, when I had been told by my ex-spouse that I had zero chance of getting them back. He was available for after-hours calls and emails, and worked tirelessly to ensure that I was able to provide all necessary documentation and... information to return my parental rights. Attorneys aren't cheap, but an absolute necessity when what matters most, your children, are on the line. I would hire him again if I have any further issues.

Very prompt, sympathetic, knowledgeable, VERY helpful and honest!!

My father suddenly passed away and I do not live in Colorado so I was not aware of probate court laws. Matthew not only called me for my consult over the phone he did it for NO CHARGE! Incredibly helpful both knowledgeable and compassionate. He told me I was doing great and was very incouraging. He i...ncuraged me to try to fill out the probate papers myself since I had already printed them and read up on them but told me several times he was there for me at anytime I needed him. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone! He really helped answer all my questions and put my mind at ease!

Divorce

Divorce is one of the top qualifying stressful events in someone's life. I can confidently say that Matt Drexler was a key to making it through such a stressful situation in my life. His knowledge is immense. He never faultered and was always available during emergency situations. In fact, it was... his expertise that allowed us to achieve the goals that we set out to in our very first meeting. Matt never hesitated to inform me of my legal rights and to advise me on an appropriate action. Matt Drexler is the type of attorney that you can count on to fight for your legal rights with integrity and honesty. He takes care to help you fight the battles worth fighting and doesn't hesitate to tell you when you might want to re-evalutate your goals. His firm is punctual, hard-working, and just brilliant.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
